Abstract
The dynamic interface between invading viral pathogens and programmed cell death (PCD) of the host is a finely regulated process. Host cellular demise at the end of the viral life cycle ensures the release of progeny virions to initiate new infection cycles. Rotavirus (RV), a diarrheagenic virus with double-stranded RNA genome, has been reported to trigger different types of PCD such as apoptosis and pyroptosis in a highly regulated way to successfully disseminate progeny virions. Recently our lab also showed that induction of MLKL-driven programmed necroptosis by RV. However, the host cellular machinery involved in RV-induced necroptosis and the upstream viral trigger responsible for it remained unaddressed. In the present study, the signalling upstream of MLKL-driven necroptosis has been delineated where the involvement of Receptor interacting serine/threonine kinase 3 (RIPK3) and 1 (RIPK1) from the host side and RV non-structural protein 4 (NSP4) as the viral trigger for necroptosis has been shown. Interestingly, RV-NSP4 was found to be an integral component of the necrosome complex by interacting with RIPK1, thereby bypassing the requirement of RIPK1 kinase activity. Subsequently, NSP4-driven elevated cytosolic Ca2+ concentration and Ca2+-binding to NSP4 lead further to RHIM domain-dependent RIPK1-RIPK3 interaction, RIPK3-dependent MLKL phosphorylation, and eventual necroptosis. Overall, this study presents the interplay between RV-NSP4 and the host cellular necrosome complex to induce necroptotic death of host cells.

Abstract
Necroptosis is a lytic form of regulated cell death reported to contribute to inflammatory diseases of the gut, skin and lung, as well as ischemic-reperfusion injuries of the kidney, heart and brain. However, precise identification of the cells and tissues that undergo necroptotic cell death in vivo has proven challenging in the absence of robust protocols for immunohistochemical detection. Here, we provide automated immunohistochemistry protocols to detect core necroptosis regulators - Caspase-8, RIPK1, RIPK3 and MLKL - in formalin-fixed mouse and human tissues. We observed surprising heterogeneity in protein expression within tissues, whereby short-lived immune barrier cells were replete with necroptotic effectors, whereas long-lived cells lacked RIPK3 or MLKL expression. Local changes in the expression of necroptotic effectors occurred in response to insults such as inflammation, dysbiosis or immune challenge, consistent with necroptosis being dysregulated in disease contexts. These methods will facilitate the precise localisation and evaluation of necroptotic signaling in vivo.

Abstract
Within the field of medical science, there is a great deal of interest in investigating cell death pathways in the hopes of discovering new drugs. Over the past two decades, pharmacological research has focused on necroptosis, a cell death process that has just been discovered. Receptor-interacting protein kinase 1 (RIPK1), an essential regulator in the cell death receptor signalling pathway, has been shown to be involved in the regulation of important events, including necrosis, inflammation, and apoptosis. Therefore, researching necroptosis inhibitors offers novel ways to treat a variety of disorders that are not well-treated by the therapeutic medications now on the market. The research and medicinal potential of RIPK1 inhibitors, a promising class of drugs, are thoroughly examined in this study. The journey from the discovery of Necrostatin-1 (Nec-1) to the recent advancements in RIPK1 inhibitors is marked by significant progress, highlighting the integration of traditional medicinal chemistry approaches with modern technologies like high-throughput screening and DNA-encoded library technology. This review presents a thorough exploration of the development and therapeutic potential of RIPK1 inhibitors, a promising class of compounds. Simultaneously, this review highlights the complex roles of RIPK1 in various pathological conditions and discusses potential inhibitors discovered through diverse pathways, emphasizing their efficacy against multiple disease models, providing significant guidance for the expansion of knowledge about RIPK1 and its inhibitors to develop more selective, potent, and safe therapeutic agents.

Abstract
Since their invention in the early 2000s, tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have gained prominence as the most effective pathway-directed anti-cancer agents. TKIs have shown significant utility in the treatment of multiple hematological malignancies and solid tumors, including chronic myelogenous leukemia, non-small cell lung cancers, gastrointestinal stromal tumors, and HER2-positive breast cancers. Given their widespread applications, an increasing frequency of TKI-induced adverse effects has been reported. Although TKIs are known to affect multiple organs in the body including the lungs, liver, gastrointestinal tract, kidneys, thyroid, blood, and skin, cardiac involvement accounts for some of the most serious complications. The most frequently reported cardiovascular side effects range from hypertension, atrial fibrillation, reduced cardiac function, and heart failure to sudden death. The potential mechanisms of these side effects are unclear, leading to critical knowledge gaps in the development of effective therapy and treatment guidelines. There are limited data to infer the best clinical approaches for the early detection and therapeutic modulation of TKI-induced side effects, and universal consensus regarding various management guidelines is yet to be reached. In this state-of-the-art review, we examine multiple pre-clinical and clinical studies and curate evidence on the pathophysiology, mechanisms, and clinical management of these adverse reactions. We expect that this review will provide researchers and allied healthcare providers with the most up-to-date information on the pathophysiology, natural history, risk stratification, and management of emerging TKI-induced side effects in cancer patients.

Abstract
Necroptosis refers to a regulated form of cell death induced by a variety of stimuli. Although it has been implicated in the pathogenesis of many diseases, there is evidence to support that necroptosis is not purely a detrimental process. We propose that necroptosis is a "double-edged sword" in terms of physiology and pathology. On the one hand, necroptosis can trigger an uncontrolled inflammatory cascade response, resulting in severe tissue injury, disease chronicity, and even tumor progression. On the other hand, necroptosis functions as a host defense mechanism, exerting antipathogenic and antitumor effects through its powerful pro-inflammatory properties. Moreover, necroptosis plays an important role during both development and regeneration. Misestimation of the multifaceted features of necroptosis may influence the development of therapeutic approaches targeting necroptosis. In this review, we summarize current knowledge of the pathways involved in necroptosis as well as five important steps that determine its occurrence. The dual role of necroptosis in a variety of physiological and pathological conditions is also highlighted. Future studies and the development of therapeutic strategies targeting necroptosis should fully consider the complicated properties of this type of regulated cell death.

Abstract
The past decade has seen the emergence of the necroptosis programmed cell death pathway as an important contributor to the pathophysiology of myriad diseases. The receptor interacting protein kinase (RIPK)1 and RIPK3, and the pseudokinase executioner protein, mixed lineage kinase domain-like (MLKL), have grown to prominence as the core pathway components. Depending on cellular context, these proteins also serve as integrators of signals, such as post-translational modifications and protein or metabolite interactions, adding layers of complexity to pathway regulation. Here, we describe the emerging picture of the web of proteins that tune necroptotic signal transduction and how these events have diverged across species, presumably owing to selective pressures of pathogens upon the RIPK3-MLKL protein pair.

Abstract
Simple Summary Necroptosis plays an important role in the occurrence and development of many cancers. MLKL is an important component of necroptosis, and has been proved to be closely related to the prognosis of gastric cancer (GC). We determined an early diagnosis (FAP, CCT6A) and prognosis risk score (ZFP36, TP53I3, FAP, CCT6A) model of necroptosis-related genes (NRGs) in GC. Two models, respectively, can effectively predict the occurrence of GC and the prognosis of GC patients. The association between the prognostic risk score and the response to immunotherapy and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) was also analyzed. FAP was also identified as the core gene in the two models, and the relationship between its expression in GC and ICIs was analyzed. This discovery is the first time that NRGs were combined with immunotherapy for GC and provides a new target for immunotherapy for GC and a more accurate treatment scheme for GC patients. Abstract Necroptosis is a kind of programmed necrosis, which is different from apoptosis and pyroptosis. Its molecular mechanism has been described in inflammatory diseases. Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most common malignancies worldwide with the third highest mortality. However, the role of necroptosis in the occurrence and progression of GC remains largely unexplored. Therefore, we investigated necroptosis-related genes (NRGs) by analyzing public transcriptomic data from GC samples. Our results indicate that 83 of 740 NRGs are dysregulated in GC tissues. Next, we identified necroptosis-associated early diagnosis and prognostic gene signatures for GC using machine learning. 2-NRGs (CCT6A and FAP) and 4-NRGs (ZFP36, TP53I3, FAP, and CCT6A), respectively, can effectively assess the risk of early GC (AUC = 0.943) and the prognosis of GC patients (AUC = 0.866). Through in-depth analysis, we were pleasantly surprised to find that there was a significant correlation between the 4-NRGs and GC immunotherapy effect and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), which could be used for the evaluation of immunosuppressants. Finally, we identified the core gene FAP, and established the relationship between FAP and ICIs in GC. These findings could provide a new target for immunotherapy for GC and a more effective treatment scheme for GC patients.

Abstract
Necroptosis is a caspase-independent, pro-inflammatory mode of programmed cell death which relies on the activation of the terminal effector, MLKL, by the upstream protein kinase RIPK3. To mediate necroptosis, RIPK3 must stably interact with, and phosphorylate the pseudokinase domain of MLKL, although the precise molecular cues that provoke RIPK3 necroptotic signaling are incompletely understood. The recent finding that RIPK3 S227 phosphorylation and the occurrence of a stable RIPK3:MLKL complex in human cells prior to exposure to a necroptosis stimulus raises the possibility that additional, as-yet-unidentified phosphorylation events activate RIPK3 upon initiation of necroptosis signaling. Here, we sought to identify phosphorylation sites of RIPK3 and dissect their regulatory functions. Phosphoproteomics identified 21 phosphorylation sites in HT29 cells overexpressing human RIPK3. By comparing cells expressing wild-type and kinase-inactive D142N RIPK3, autophosphorylation sites and substrates of other cellular kinases were distinguished. Of these 21 phosphosites, mutational analyses identified only pT224 and pS227 as crucial, synergistic sites for stable interaction with MLKL to promote necroptosis, while the recently reported activation loop phosphorylation at S164/T165 negatively regulate the kinase activity of RIPK3. Despite being able to phosphorylate MLKL to a similar or higher extent than wild-type RIPK3, mutation of T224, S227, or the RHIM in RIPK3 attenuated necroptosis. This finding highlights the stable recruitment of human MLKL by RIPK3 to the necrosome as an essential checkpoint in necroptosis signaling, which is independent from and precedes the phosphorylation of MLKL.

Abstract
The non-catalytic cousins of protein kinases, the pseudokinases, have grown to prominence as indispensable signaling entities over the past decade, despite their lack of catalytic activity. Because their importance has only been fully embraced recently, many of the 10% of the human kinome categorized as pseudokinases are yet to be attributed biological functions. The advent of CRISPR-Cas9 editing to genetically delete pseudokinases in a cell line of interest has proven invaluable to dissecting many functions and remains the method of choice for gene knockout. Here, using the terminal effector pseudokinase in the necroptosis cell death pathway, MLKL, as an exemplar, we describe a method for genetic knockout of pseudokinases in cultured cells. This method does not retain the CRISPR guide sequence in the edited cells, which eliminates possible interference in subsequent reconstitution studies where mutant forms of the pseudokinase can be reintroduced into cells exogenously for detailed mechanistic characterization.
